BANANA BREAD WITH PECANS



Banana Bread with Pecans image

The addition of pecans in this recipe gives the banana bread a nice mix of textures.

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     bake,dessert,fruit,nuts,snack

Time 1h40m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
4 overripe bananas
1 cup sugar
¾ cup (1 ½ sticks) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 large eggs
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
½ cup pecans, finely chopped
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF and lightly grease a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
  • Mash 2 of the bananas with a fork in a small bowl so they still have a bit of texture. With an electric mixer fitted with a wire whisk, whip the remaining bananas and sugar together for a good 3 minutes; you want a light and fluffy banana cream. Add the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla; beat well and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Mix in the dry ingredients just until incorporated; no need to overly blend. Fold in the nuts and the mashed bananas with a rubber spatula. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Give the pan a good rap on the counter to get any air bubbles out.
  • Bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Don't get nervous if the banana bread develops a crack down the center of the loaf; that's no mistake, it's typical. Rotate the pan periodically to ensure even browning.
  • Cool the bread in the pan for 10 minutes or so, and then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. Toast the slices of banana bread, dust with confectioners' sugar, and serve.

Categories     Appetizer     Breakfast     Dessert     Side Dish     Snack

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 Cup Vegetable Oil (- 115 milliliters - 1/2 cup equals 8 tablespoons)
2 Eggs ((large))
1 1/2 Cups Mashed Bananas (- 345 grams - Roughly 2 1/2 - 3 large & RIPE bananas)
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract (- 5 milliliters)
2 Cups All Purpose Flour (- 240 grams)
1/2 Cup White Granulated Sugar (- 100 grams)
1/2 Cup Light Brown Sugar ((packed) - 107 grams)
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda (- 5 milliliters)
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder (- 5 milliliters)
1/2 Teaspoon Salt (- 2.5 milliliters)
1 Cup Chopped Pecans (- 115 grams - 3/4 cup mixed into batter & 1/4 cup sprinkled on top of batter)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Mash bananas with a fork.
  • Lightly beat eggs.
  • Stir eggs, mashed bananas, vegetable oil and vanilla extract together in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the dry ingredients (except chopped pecans) together. This helps to evenly spread out the dry ingredients (i.e. baking soda & sugar). Optional - If you have a whisk, use it to mix the dry ingredients because a whisk is better at breaking up any small flour and brown sugar lumps.
  • Pour the mixed dry ingredients (except the chopped pecans) into the bowl containing the wet ingredients. Stir with a large spoon until the batter is fully mixed.
  • Add 3/4 cup of chopped pecans to the batter (and save the remaining 1/4 cup of pecans for later). Stir until the pecans are evenly mixed throughout the batter.
  • Pour the finished batter into a nonstick bread pan. Smooth out the top of the batter within the bread pan.
  • Sprinkle the remaining chopped pecans (1/4 cup) on top of the batter within the bread pan.
  • Bake in the oven for 65-70 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Take out of oven and let the banana bread cool down in the bread pan for 10 minutes. Do not remove the banana bread from the bread pan during this 10 minute cool down period. Use oven mitts as the bread pan will be very hot coming out of the oven.
  • After 10 minutes, remove the banana bread from the bread pan. Place the banana bread on a cooling rack in order to completely cool. This cool down may take 1-2 hours. Gently slide a silicon spatula between the banana bread and the bread pan walls if the banana bread is stuck in the pan.
  • Please read Bread Dad's tips section for extra information on how to make this recipe successfully & to avoid common banana bread problems.

ROASTED PECAN BANANA BREAD LOAVES



Roasted Pecan Banana Bread Loaves image

My father loves bananas and pecans, so for his birthday this year I whipped up a special treat for him: two of his favorites, wrapped into one, and made into individual loaves so he could easily freeze the extras and have his birthday banana bread whenever he wanted. (Coconut extract helps to bring out the fresh banana flavor - trust!) The flavor is better a day later.

Categories     Bread     Quick Bread Recipes     Fruit Bread Recipes     100+ Banana Bread Recipes     Banana Nut Bread Recipes

Time 1h35m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 12

¾ cup chopped pecans
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups very ripe, mashed bananas
1 cup white sugar
2 large eggs
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
½ teaspoon coconut extract
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ cup light butter, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Spread the pecans onto a baking sheet, and toast until the nuts start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, about 45 minutes. Watch the nuts carefully as they bake, they burn quickly. Once toasted, set the nuts aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Raise the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 2 mini loaf pans with cooking spray.
  • Combine the toasted pecans, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. In a large bowl, mix the bananas, sugar, eggs, vanilla and coconut extracts, lemon juice, and butter together with a fork or an electric mixer on low speed. Stir the flour mixture into the banana mixture, and pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans, filling them about 3/4 full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the middle of a loaf comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Let the loaves cool in the pans for 5 minutes before turning out onto a rack to finish cooling. Wrap cooled loaves in plastic wrap.

Tips:

  • To ensure an even bake, preheat your oven to the correct temperature and ensure your baking dish is the appropriate size for the batter.
  • Mash the bananas until smooth for a finer texture or leave some small chunks for a more rustic texture.
  • Use room temperature ingredients, especially the butter and eggs, as they blend more easily and create a smoother batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter as this can result in a tough bread. Mix just until all the ingredients are combined.
  • If your bread is browning too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil or parchment paper during baking.

Conclusion:

Banana bread with pecans is a delicious and versatile treat that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its moist texture, sweet banana flavor, and crunchy pecan topping, this bread is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you have some ripe bananas on hand, give this recipe a try!
